NCAA update: Another boost for Oregon in relay

Race favorite Texas A&M was disqualified in the relay after a zone violation … this is a huge boost for the UO men.

That takes 10 points away from the Aggies which makes the failure of UO freshman Matt Centrowitz to reach the 1,500 final a wash.

Curtis Anderson covered UO track and field for The Register-Guard from 1990-96, and again since 2005. He covered the 2012 Olympic Games in London, in addition to the U.S. Olympic Track & Field Trials in New Orleans (1992), Atlanta (1996) and Hayward Field (2008 and 2012). He is the winner of the Jesse Abramson Award, presented by the Track & Field Writers of America for excellence in coverage in 2008.
